The Complete Obama Timeline February 2016 On February 1, 2016 more than $100 billion in assets is released to Iran. (The White House had claimed it would be only $50 billion. One or both of the two parties is lying.) [87369, 87380, 87381, 87405] The Sun reports that Great Britain “is home to more than 3 million Muslims for the first time ever with more than half born outside the UK, according to new figures. Soaring immigration and sky high birth rates have seen the number in the country double in a little over a decade. Some parts of London are now almost 50 per cent Islamic, according to analysis from the Office for National Statistics. If current trends continue the areas could become majority Muslim within ten years. …Followers of Islam now make up one in every 20 people within the country.” (The process is “birth jihad” or “stealth jihad.” Muslims take over an area first via immigration, both legal and illegal, and they then dominate the culture as a result of their phenomenal birth rates— all the while collecting welfare benefits funded by taxpayers who fear being shamed as “Islamophobes” if they object. Parts of Europe are being destroyed in the process.) [87371, 87372] Workers at a refugee center in Sweden are banned from holding a memorial service for co- worker Alexandra Mezher, who was killed by a migrant, in order to “secure the well-being of the children.” (Translation: “We do not want to upset the Muslim refugees or let them think killing Swedes is not an acceptable pastime.”) [87427, 87429] CNN reports that leftist billionaire George Soros has donated $6 million to Hillary Clinton’s political action committee (PAC). (Soros money helped Obama significantly in 2008.) [87324] On Morning Joe , Bloomberg Politics managing editor Mark Halperin says there are “more problems with [Hillary Clinton’s] emails, more questions about how it was handled. Look, the legal calendar, we don’t know what that is. We know the political calendar. Bernie Sanders announced yesterday he’s raised $20 million this month. He’s forced Secretary Clinton to agree to more debates into the spring. So Bernie Sanders, even if he loses here tonight can go forward with lots of money, with debates on the schedule, and see, are there developments in the legal front that allow him to start to win even after tonight if he doesn’t win here?” Joe Scarborough adds, “Everybody in the government, everybody in the media, everybody that runs anything is talking about how advanced this investigation [of Clinton] is, and nobody’s telling the American people about it. So, I had an executive in another network ask, ‘Is it safe to talk about it now?’ So we talked about it. And then that afternoon… explosive revelations came out, and there are more [to come].” [87355] DailyCaller.com reports, “Hillary Clinton’s former chief of staff, Cheryl Mills, refused to speak to investigators with the State Department’s Office of the Inspector General about her handling of a 2012 public records request for information about Clinton’s private email addresses that the agency falsely denied.” [87400] 1 ChicagoBusiness.com reports, “The Giannoulias family, which collected tens of millions in dividends just prior to the collapse of their Broadway Bank in Chicago, appear to have gotten off relatively lightly in a newly released settlement with federal bank regulators over losses at the company. Former officers and directors of Broadway Bank, including former CEO Demetris Giannoulias and his brother George Giannoulias, paid $5 million under a Nov. 18 settlement with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. …The 2010 failure of Broadway Bank came in the middle of a hotly contested election for …Obama’s old Senate seat. Illinois Treasurer Alexi Giannoulias, brother to Demetris and George and once an executive at Broadway, lost to Republican Mark Kirk. [Obama endorsed Giannoulias, despite the bank’s mob ties.] The bank’s failure, coupled with the fact that the family had taken $30 million in dividends in 2007 and 2008 from the bank as signs of financial trouble were emerging, played a part in Giannoulias’ defeat at the polls.” (The bank failed largely because of subprime loans.) [87353] White House press secretary Josh Earnest tells reporters he can’t comment on Hillary Clinton’s emails because “I haven’t seen any of them.” (This is the same Josh Earnest who said on January 29, “[B]ased on what we know from the Department of Justice” Clinton will not be indicted.’) [87238, 87251, 87282, 87316, 87354] At FoxNews.com Catherine Herridge and Pamela K. Browne report, “Highly classified Hillary Clinton emails that the intelligence community and State Department recently deemed too damaging to national security to release contain ‘operational intelligence’—and their presence on the unsecure, personal email system jeopardized ‘sources, methods and lives,’ a U.S. government official who has reviewed the documents told Fox News. The official, who was not authorized to speak on the record and was limited in discussing the contents because of their highly classified nature, was referring to the 22 ‘TOP SECRET’ emails that the State Department announced Friday it could not release in any form, even with entire sections redacted. …The official emphasized that the ‘TOP SECRET’ documents were sent over an extended period of time— from shortly after the server’s 2009 installation until early 2013 when Clinton stepped down as secretary of state.” [87356, 87357] Congressman Mike Pompeo (R-FL) observes, “There is no way that someone, a senior government official who has been handling classified information for a good chunk of their adult life, could not have known that this information ought to be classified, whether it was marked or not. Anyone with the capacity to read and an understanding of American national security, an 8th grade reading level or above, would understand that the release of this information or the potential breach of a non-secure system presented risk to American national security. Anytime our national security team determines that there's a potential breach, that is information that might potentially have fallen into the hands of the Iranians, or the Russians, or the Chinese, or just hackers, that they begin to operate in a manner that assumes that information has in fact gotten out.” [87356, 87357] The national debt reaches $19 trillion. Billionaire businessman Mark Cuban tells Fox News’ Neil Cavuto, “I’ll consider [voting for] anybody but Ted Cruz. …People are tired of labels. That’s one of the reasons I don’t like Ted Cruz. Everything he says is defined by some sort of label.” (In addition, Cruz is a flip-flopper 2 when it is convenient for his political career. In an August 11, 2011 he said he supported the “anchor baby” interpretation of the Fourteenth Amendment. In an August 22, 2015 interview he stated he was opposed.) [87389, 87567, 87570] The Jeb Bush campaign allegedly offers people $25 per hour to be “seat fillers” for his Des Moines, Iowa rally. The Bush campaign issues a denial and suggests the flyer is a “dirty trick” from the Marco Rubio campaign. [87358, 87359] Researcher Gary Wilmott calls KABC 790 to state that Ted Cruz cannot legally serve as president because he is not a natural born citizen. Talk show host Peter Tilden ridicules Wilmott and asks why if Cruz is ineligible no one knows about it. Wilmott tries to explain that the media is doing its best to cover up the truth. Tilden then cuts off Wilmott—thereby substantiating the claim that the media refuses to discuss the issue. [87471, 87700] At 7:00 pm, just as Iowa caucus voting starts, Ted Cruz sends a message: “CNN is reporting that Ben Carson will stop campaigning after Iowa. Make sure to tell all of your peers at the caucus [who are] supporting Carson that they should coalesce around the true conservative who will be in the race for the Long haul: TED CRUZ!” (Cruz is lying. CNN did not report that Carson is pulling out of the race; it reported only that he was going to Florida before heading to New Hampshire and South Carolina to campaign). [87481, 87598] Cruz also “creatively extends” the CNN report, claiming there would be a big announcement from the Carson campaign late in the week—suggesting the announcement would be Carson dropping out of the race. (Cruz later blames CNN, but it was not CNN that invented the “big announcement” addition to the false story.) [87481] The Cruz campaign expands on the dirty trick, stationing operatives outside caucus locations to tell voters Ben Carson has dropped out of the race and encouraging them to vote for Cruz. (Spreading a lie for the sake of personal gain is apparently one of Cruz’s evangelical values.) Carson later tells Fox News’ Bill O’Reilly, “Bill, here’s the issue. A culture exists within the Cruz camp that would allow people to take advantage of a situation like this in a very dishonest way. Isn’t this the same thing we see with the Obama administration? The IRS Scandal? No responsibility. Look and see what the Cruz camp will do about those individuals who inappropriately disseminated this information knowing that the caucuses were not over. They were awfully anxious to get it out there, weren’t they?” [87360, 87361, 87362, 87418, 87421, 87430] Congressman Steve King (R-IA), a Cruz supporter, shamelessly tweets, “Carson looks like he is out. Iowans need to know before they vote. Most will go to Cruz, I hope.” (King’s tweet comes almost one-half hour after the Carson campaign issued a statement declaring the Cruz rumor to be false.
